New map is the worst of 3 maps by far. Hands down. Nothing but 3rd parties constantly. No safe places to land and loot for a short time before fighting. Literally havent played a single game where my team made it to the 2nd circle. And no im not a * player, ive been ranked in platinum every season as a solo. This map takes the worst things about king's canyon and world's edge and combines them into one garbage map. Massive wide open spaces with no loot for miles. No large areas of terrain to block off teams from seeing fights or easily rotating to them. Loot is far too sparse....have to run 86 miles to find enough loot to last 1 fight. Im done. Map just sucks a fat *.

@Noksterz But it doesnt take any skill to make platinum. You can literally land safe and hide all the way to platinum.The difference is this map has people landing in every spot so you cant just loot and sneak around.

Stopped halfway reading the first line. Anyone who says that this is the worst of the 3 maps is someone I cannot take seriously...

I make it to high diamond solo every season and I agree with you this map is total garbage. My team dies immediately every game and I have no time to help them. I feel helpless and bored the whole time I’m playing. The map is meant for competitive camping * it’s not meant for pubs. The whole map feels like a desert with buildings scattered around and there’s always a team already camping each one. If you get shot by a team other teams will show from every direction. It’s a literal death trap every fight. Every map you can easily run from a fight this new map there’s nowhere to run. The new map has no elements of what makes Apex fun. The old Kings canyon was great for amazing fights and surviving the new map is the complete opposite. Now you can drop safe and land on the outskirts of the map but have fun running the rest of the game and only to die once you run into a team because there’s no outplay on this map it straight up sucks for pubs.

@Cheese9Man This is the second time it's been bumped in as many days! The previous bump was moved already lol. Gonna go with the flow here and agree that Olympus sucks.

@Noksterz It takes more than 3 days to learn the map.

Its not as bad as I thought it was going to be. 100% agree about the wide open spaces, we've said this ourselves. And now you can not only hear shots miles away but see where they are because of the open space :') But I dont hate it. I wasn't keen on worlds edge either until I got to know it.

@Noksterz I don't get how you're a plat player but you can't make it to the 2nd circle? Like you could legit land in a remote place, wall hug and survive pretty easily...

I didn't like the map much at first but it's actually pretty decent. It is like you quite rightly said very open. Loot fluctuates quite a bit but I've had worse on both KC and WE that's just garbage RNG.

Its the worst by a mile. not even debatable. ill take KC or WE 100% of the time over this *. the fact that i make it to platinum solo every year should more than enough to take me seriously.

I think the map is fine.
What people don't like is having to change, imo, and yes, you definitely have to change to play this map.
Honestly, could be the very best map so far.

@Noksterz perhaps you should pay more attention to where other squads are heading towards on the jump. It's a huge map with lots of space and plenty if loot if you could be bothered to look for it. I love it. I expect to be third partied after a fight, so don't linger. There are also plenty of nooks and crannies all over the place to hide if necessary.

@Noksterz LOLZ every year? xD

Plat is easy to get solo Q. Even with worthless teammates if you have decent aim, good game sense or an IQ higher than that of a chimpansee you can get there. Have all three and you’re a candidate for those higher tiers.

I’ve seen multiple ppl not liking the map which is fair, but no one so far who called this map worse than KC or WE xD

I’m guessing you don’t like either the loot distribution, you’re way around the map or the many places you can go or a combo of 2/all 3 of those...

Just play it more. If you still don’t like it, in 10 days WE is back
